Adjusted geometrical means (± SD) of PCB and chlorinated pesticide/metabolite concentrations in serum lipids (ng/g lipid) among primiparous women with different consumption rates (g/day) of herring and wild salmon/trout from the Baltic Sea (fatty Baltic fish) the year they attended 7th grade in school. Adjusted for age, year of sampling, pre-pregnancy BMI, and weight change during pregnancy. Statistical analysis performed only on women born in Nordic countries. Results shown are for organochlorine compounds with significantly different adjusted means between women with the lowest and highest consumption levels (p ≤ 0.05, N = 226).
